What Causes Drain Blockages?
There are all kinds of things that can cause your building’s drainage to get blocked. And as NYC plumbers, we’ve seen it all. Here are some of the major causes of drain clogs:
- Food scraps
- Hair
- Soap scum & toothpaste residue
- Toilet paper or wet wipes
- Personal hygiene & other unflushable items
- Cooking fats, oils, or grease
- Tree roots
- Pipe corrosion
- Structural problems
All kinds of substances and debris can end up running through your pipes, leading to buildup over time. Whatever the issue is, Boris Mechanical has the tools and expertise to handle it. We’ll identify the cause of the clog and provide fast, straightforward drain cleaning services when and where you need them.
What Makes Professional Drain Cleaning Important?

While cleaning a drain yourself is possible, it’s not as straightforward as it seems. There are several key reasons why New York City’s complex network of drains often requires professional expertise. Here are a few for you to consider:
DIY Drain Cleaning May Not Be Enough
Consumer-grade cleaners and drain cleaning tools can be effective in some cases. However, there are times when a blockage is too deep, or identifying its cause requires specialized equipment.
The commercial-grade hydro-jets and camera inspection systems our plumbers use can inspect even the deepest parts of a plumbing system and safely clear clogged drains.
Avoids Property Damage
Some clogs could be caused by serious issues in your building’s plumbing, like root intrusion or collapsed pipes. That’s a job for a trained plumbing professional, not a resident or property manager.
On the other hand, one wrong move while attempting to unclog your drains could lead to leaks that damage interior spaces or even your building’s foundation.
In the hands of a knowledgeable professional from Boris Mechanical, your issue is more likely to be fixed without any unnecessary damage to your plumbing or property.

Our Range of Drain Cleaning Services in NYC
Boris Mechanical covers every essential step for a spotless drain cleaning. Here are the main drain cleaning services we can provide:
Drain Inspection
When one of our licensed master plumbers arrives at your home, the first thing they’ll do is perform a thorough inspection of your drain. It may just be taking a look around your appliance, or sending in a drain inspection camera. No matter what, we’ll find the cause of your drainage problems ASAP.
Drain Snaking for Sinks, Toilets, and Tubs
For smaller-scale clogs and blockages, we’ll use our industrial-strength drain snakes. These tools are designed to clear all sorts of tough gunk and debris while easily fitting into even the most difficult drains.
Hydro-Jetting for Tough Blockages and Sewer Lines
For even tougher grease and grime, our team also has hydro-jetting equipment. They blast high-pressure water at up to 4,000 PSI ( or pounds per square inch, around enough to clean off heavy-duty paint or shatter concrete), cutting through thick grease, mineral buildup, and other debris trapped in your plumbing system.
Our master plumber will come to your location and assess if hydro-jetting is necessary for your particular blockage. If so, they can adjust the water pressure to ensure it is safe and effective on cast iron, PVC, and other pipe materials.
